Have you tried carbonating wine with a soda stream? I tried juice and it blew up all over the place with one push of the button. Not sure how you could carbonate something other than water with one of those, without it exploding.

Found this at Target. Seems a bit pricey, but it will keep the easy keg cold on your counter top. No need to take up valuable fridge space. http://www.target.com/p/vinotemp-mini-keg-beer-dispenser-for-use-with-5l-kegs/-/A-50023932#prodSlot=medium_1_1&term=5l+mini+keg

Wow. Nice set up. Wish I had the space for something like that.

What a cool toy. It would be fun to make a beer in one of those.

Brewing this this weekend. Gonna go with the bacon tincture. Will be adding at bottling. That would make it easier to regulate the bacon flavor. Thought about the candy syrup, but after reading reviews it seemed like the maple stands out more. Would like the bacon and maple to be equal flavors...

SENIOR? Was he senile? Maybe a touch of the "old timers"?

i bought a brand new 24 pack of blue 16 oz ones for $30. Sorry not a very good deal on yours.

Where I'm from Rogue is "the best beer around" (not my opinion. they make good beer, but there are others that are better, and cheaper). I tried their Pumpkin Ale a few weeks ago. Nasty stuff. Too much spice. Not sure what spice it was, but it was way too much. After 3 or 4 glasses you don't...

I do 1 gallon batches. the first was a kit. I learned from that batch, that BIAB is the way to go. My second batch was BIAB and was so much easier. I use a 8 quart kettle. Works fine for me.

Might have to go this route. It can be used for all sorts of stuff. I'd be afraid that i would drink it all before getting to put it in my wort.

I've read that you can bake the bacon and and pat the grease off with paper towel or cheese cloth to remove the fat. I do like the tincture idea. It would eliminate the need for a secondary. Would the Vodka add ant off flavors? I have seen a lot of posts about using tinctures, but don't want to...

I'm new to brewing. Had some hiccups on my first 2 batches that I have learned from. Would like to make a Maple Bacon Porter. Here is what I have come up with. What do you think? Any advice would be greatly appriciated. 2 Gallon batch. 3lb pale ale malt .5 lb Caramel/crystal 60l .25...

Glad I saw this thread. I was wondering the same thing.

That's a good one. The answer is a bull.

After reading this, I now have the urge to brew a stout. Thanks alot.

This is a good one. Then when people ask why you can tell the story of the Christmas spider. Also like 8 legged IPA.

I found this and thought it would help explain the ae in secondary. The brewer has a note about how in secondary it makes it a light beer. http://www.fermentationriot.com/recipeviewer.php?beerID=59

Good article. All hale the goddess Ninkasi!

There are tons of vids on youtube about using dry ice to fill Soda Stream bottles. I have not tried this, but I know somebody that does, and he said it works great, and only costs a few bucks. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l-a3pISQLQg

How about Frans mom on The Nanny
